At last, the Supreme Court has ruled in favour of common sense in terms of decision-making regarding end-of-life care in this country. https://www.bbc.co.uk/news/uk-45003947
In my job I see more than enough suffering. Suffering of patients, their loved ones and indeed suffering of NHS staff when death is prolonged for medico-legal judgements to ‘happen’ - let alone dragging stuff out when all parties actually agree on what should constitute withdrawal of treatment in the best interests of the dying. Hoo-bloody-ray. |

I can definitely Understand the motives behind Euthanasia and Switching off.
If I happened to loose an Eye or an Arm or Leg, I would have depreciated quality of Living, and would probably throw me into depression or Something as i wouldn't be able to do what i want to do. Being young and active i don't really want to be a physical or emotional drain if that were to happen to me and if i were vegetative i don't think i'd mind (not that i would have the capacity to) for my body to be thrown to Diogenes Metaphorical wolves. In fact i think i would really quite welcome it, As my death could improve or save several other peoples lives by being a donor. Plenty of people my age have or Younger have their lives cut short because of defects ect. and don't get to experience life as it should be. And in a sense i will continue to live within them. The greatest hypocrasy of modern life is the fact that you can have an animal put out of its pain because its humane, But not a human because it wouldn't be humane.
